SERVICE MANUAL
REAR HEIGHT
STANDARD REAR UNIT
When decreasing the rear height it is necessary to remove the mudguard first, fact, the tyre will
touch it and it will impede the adjustment. With fixed mudguards, you need to remove bolts
V1
and
V2
. With removable mudguard, just pull it off. If the side guard is straight, leave it where it is.
Loosen the grab screw
B
on the rear lower side of both clamps
A.
Loosen the bolt
C
of both clamps
A
.
Now you can slide the two clamps
A
along the posts
E
.
Should the clamps be hard to slide, loosen the bolts B and C and/or, with care, hit them with a mal-
let to the necessary direction. Such operation may result particularly useful for the final adjustment
when the necessary movement is very little.
The rear axle
D
always remains fixed to the clamps
A.
The grab screw
X
and the bolt
Y
are not involved is this adjustment.
Slide the system to the necessary height.
Fix the clamp
A
of either side, tightening the bolt
C
hard and then tighten the grab screw
B
.
Before fixing the other side, check the height is the same.
To make sure that right and left side are at the same height, take measure from two “fix points”, for
instance: straight line from the hole of the post where side-guard fixing bolt
V2
is fixed (with remov-
able side guard, this hole is free) to the upper side of the clamp
A
, or from the clamp
A
to the mid-
dle of inner plate
F
of the clamp that holds the frame.
When changing the rear height it is necessary to modify the mudguard. However, if the side-guard
is straight you may leave it as it is, its upper edge will be lower or higher with respect to the tyre.
To remove and adapt the side guards, follow instruction of sheet
“
side guard adjustment
”.
In presence of anti-tipper support, the bolt
C
is different; in fact,
it is involved in the support’s assembly. To proceed with the
height adjustment, remove the nut
G
, loosen the two bolts
H
and move the support away from the bolt
C
.
Now you can loosen the bolt
C
and continue the adjustment as
above explained.
To re-assemble the support, slide it in along the bolt
C
choos-
ing the one of the 4 holes and check which one give you the
best inclination of the anti-tipper. Then fix it with the nut
G
and
finally tighten the two bolts
H
.
Remember that the rear height adjustment can affect the seat inclination, thus, it is necessary
to check and adjust the fork angle.
It is advisable to spread a drop
of mild lock thread glue on the
on the grab screws
B
.
